Product Description

Small board, big attitude. The Powell Peralta Vato Rats 7.0" Purple Fade complete brings an iconic graphic and compact control together in a setup that feels quicker and more responsive than bulkier, wider boards. Compared to basic completes, its AirLam birch construction and Skate One component mix deliver a more dialed ride you can trust from day one.

Made from strong, light, hard yellow birch and fused with water‑resistant glue in proprietary Powell‑Peralta AirLam presses, this deck is built for maximum stiffness, strength, pop, and durability. The 7.0" width, 28.0" length, and 11.5" wheelbase keep things nimble. Mini Logo trucks use premium alloys, high‑rebound bushings, and heat‑treated axles; Powell‑Peralta 53 mm 90a Street wheels roll smoothly; and Bones Reds bearings are Skate Rated with precision-ground races, mirror‑smooth balls, a high‑speed nylon retainer, Speed Cream lubricant, and a removable shield for easy cleaning. Deck, trucks, wheels, and bearings are all warranted against manufacturer defects.

Powell Peralta Vato Rats 7.0" Purple Fade Skateboard - Key Questions Answered

Who is a 7.0" deck like this best suited for?

It’s best for younger riders or skaters with smaller feet who want easier control. The narrower platform helps with balance, pushing, and learning basic turns without feeling oversized.

Is this a good choice for a first skateboard?

Yes, if the rider is just learning and wants a board that feels manageable right away. A 7.0" size is often easier to stand on, steer, and correct while building confidence.

How does it feel compared with a wider board?

It should feel quicker and more nimble, with less board to move underfoot. That can make small turns and early tricks feel less intimidating, especially for lighter riders.

Would this work for neighborhood riding and beginner skatepark sessions?

Yes, it’s a solid match for driveway practice, cruising around the block, and first skatepark attempts. The smaller size makes it easier to learn control in tight, low-speed situations.

What should I expect from the size if I’m buying it as a gift?

Expect a setup that makes sense for a kid or smaller rider rather than an adult-sized skater. The Powell Peralta name and Vato Rats graphic also make it feel like real skate gear, not a toy.

review of Punked Old School Longboard Complete -Route 66 Series - The Run

Kiddo got this board for Christmas, for us to ride on Route 66. Board is good quality. No name trucks, but they function well for her. She likes the Punked Speed Series wheels. We did put reds super bearings in it. The factory bearings do not roll near as well. For the price, for a complete, it is well worth it. This is our second Punked Longboard, and both have served their purpose. I would buy from this company, and Vendor again, without question.

Skater since 1974, pool pipe and skatepark, I've ridden it all but these Carver C7 trucks were a revelation. Best for slow speed styling and generally hanging some art on mellow terrain. Definitely a kick and worth trying.
